Repairing a magic treasure was actually not very difficult. However, it was difficult to make a magic treasure as powerful as it was before it was damaged.
The white robed old man had only observed the small iron bell for a while, but he was already confident that he could repair this top grade immortal equipment. Xiao Lingyu was extremely impressed, because in that short moment, the white robed old man should have already seen through the composition of the magic treasure, the refining method, as well as the restrictions and formations inscribed on it. This kind of eyesight was not something that anyone could possess.
After receiving the jade bottle, the white-robed old man poured the Meteorite Iron Sand into his blue divine flame. After the materials were completely melted, he placed the small bell into the divine flame as well.
After all, it was a top-grade immortal artifact, so it still had a certain degree of resistance to the divine flame. The small bell would not be melted in an instant.
The liquid Meteorite Iron Sand that had already melted slowly gathered into the gap of the small bell. The white-robed old man's other hand was also rapidly forming seals. Groups of dazzling seals were sent into the divine fire, and the cracks on the small bell's body were also slowly disappearing.
Whoosh …
The blue divine flame suddenly disappeared, and the small bell was already intact. It trembled in front of the white-robed old man, as if it was cheering for its rebirth.
The spectating cultivators below the stage collectively burst into thunderous applause. They were all cheering for the white-robed old man's exquisite skills.
From the moment the white-robed old man received the small bottle containing the Meteorite Iron Sand to the moment he finished repairing it, he used no more than one hundred breaths of time. Furthermore, he did not stop at all during the entire process, completing it in one go. This was both admirable and exciting.
"Junior thanks senior!"
The owner of the small bell received his magic treasure and bowed repeatedly in excitement.
"Haha, it's a small matter. There's no need to be so polite."
The white-robed old man smiled amiably, then said, "That's all for today. This old man still has other things to do. If I have time, I'll help everyone refine and repair it."
Although the audience still wanted to continue, the white-robed old man's figure had already disappeared from the stage.
Xiao Lingyu also did not have enough fun watching, but since the old man had already left, he naturally would not stay behind to reminisce about anything.
"That old man must have gone to find Qing Xuan. It's good that I go back now. With an outsider here, I think she won't dare to be angry."
Thinking of this, Xiao Lingyu began to walk toward the Nanhua Treasure Pavilion.
When he reached the first floor of the Nanhua Treasure Pavilion, Xiao Lingyu asked the manager of the first floor, "Did a white-robed old man go upstairs just now?"
Xiao Lingyu came with Qing Xuan and went upstairs together. The manager of the first floor of the Nanhua Treasure Pavilion naturally knew that Xiao Lingyu's identity was extraordinary, so he answered honestly, "Senior, the Grandmaster has indeed been brought upstairs, but I don't know which floor he is on which floor."
"Haha, it's good that he is here."
Smiling, Xiao Xiao Lingyu went upstairs directly to the fourth floor.
As expected, the white-robed old man was on the fourth floor, and so was Qing Xuan. The two of them seemed to be chatting happily.
But when he saw Xiao Lingyu come up, Qing Xuan's expression changed, and then he stood up and introduced, "This is Elder Peng, and this is Qing Xuan's Junior Brother, Xiao Lingyu."
Then Qing Xuan said to Xiao Lingyu, "Junior Brother Xiao, come and greet Elder Peng."
Xiao Lingyu cupped his fists with a smile and saluted, "Junior Brother Xiao Lingyu greets Elder Peng. When I saw Elder Peng's performance on the street just now, I was really amazed and very much in awe!"
Elder Peng was a very easy-going person, and he had already stood up. When Qing Xuan introduced him, he looked at Xiao Lingyu with shining eyes. At this time, he cupped his fists and returned the salute, saying, "Junior Brother Xiao, you haven't been cultivating for long, but you have already reached such a cultivation level. It is even more admirable."
Hearing this, Xiao Lingyu secretly cursed. He actually met another old monster with sharp eyes, but his expression was still very calm, and he said modestly, "Elder Peng, you flatter me."
The three of them sat down again. With Xiao Lingyu around, Qing Xuan was no longer in the mood to chat with Elder Peng, and he said, "It is rare for Elder Peng to go out on a trip, and I just happen to have a damaged magic weapon here. I would be very grateful if Elder Peng could help me repair it."
As Qing Xuan spoke, he took out a fan with more than a dozen colorful feathers and put it on the table.
The feather fan didn't look too damaged, but there was a perfectly straight sword mark in the center. It was obviously slashed by a sharp sword.
Elder Peng nodded first, then he took the feather fan in his hand. After carefully examining it for a while, he said, "This feather fan is a low-grade divine tool. It should have been damaged by a single sword strike, so it should have been attacked by a divine sword. I remember that Junior Sister Qing Xuan seems to have a mid-grade divine sword."
Qing Xuan said very frankly, "To tell you the truth, this feather fan was damaged by my divine sword. At that time, it was in the hands of my opponent."
"So it was obtained after killing someone," Xiao Lingyu interrupted.
Qing Xuan ignored Xiao Lingyu, and only glared at him. Xiao Lingyu only then realized that many things could be seen through but not explained.
Elder Peng naturally didn't care where the feather fan came from or how it was obtained. After repeatedly examining the feather fan a few times, he said, "This feather fan should have been refined from the feathers of a high-grade divine beast, the Vermillion Bird. If you want to repair it, you'll need a bottle of the Vermillion Bird's blood."
Qing Xuan had also come prepared. He immediately placed a jade bottle full of brownish-red liquid on the table.
Elder Peng opened the jade bottle and said after a while, "Yes, it is indeed the Vermillion Bird's blood."
"The two of you, please step aside."
Elder Peng asked Xiao Lingyu and Qing Xuan to step aside before releasing his divine fire and pouring all of the Vermillion Bird's blood into it to refine it.
The Vermillion Bird's blood was of a much higher grade than the Meteorite Iron Sand. Even though he was burning it with divine fire, it still took him almost ten days to finish refining it. During this time, Elder Peng's expression was calm and he appeared to be very focused. Xiao Lingyu and Qing Xuan were waiting patiently.
Qing Xuan seemed to still be angry with Xiao Lingyu. Perhaps his attention was focused on repairing the feather fan, so he didn't say a single word to Xiao Lingyu.
After refining the Vermillion Bird's blood, Elder Peng didn't throw the damaged feather fan into his divine fire. Instead, he slowly dripped the refined Vermillion Bird's blood onto the sword marks on the feather fan, and he continuously inserted seals into the feather fan.
When all of the Vermilion Bird's blood dripped onto the feather fan, Elder Peng immediately extinguished the Divine Fire. Then, he formed a seal with one hand and quickly inscribed a miniature restriction and formation with the other. He then inserted the seal, restriction, and formation into the feather fan.
At this time, beads of sweat had already seeped out of Elder Peng's forehead. His expression was grave and his face was a little pale. It seemed that he had consumed a lot of energy.
After all, it was repairing a divine artifact. It was impossible for ordinary cultivators to complete this task. Even if Elder Peng could complete it, it wouldn't be as easy as repairing a top-grade immortal artifact.
However, although Elder Peng's actions seemed simple, it required extremely high levels of array dao, restriction dao, and refining skills to support the successful completion of these actions. Moreover, there couldn't be any mistakes in any of the steps. It also required extremely high and precise control.
After spending nearly a month, Elder Peng finally stopped. The feather fan, which had been very quiet after being damaged, was now circulating with dazzling divine light. It floated in the air of the fourth floor, looking very mystical.
After completing the task, Elder Peng didn't even have time to wipe his sweat. He directly took a milky white pill and then closed his eyes to meditate.
Xiao Lingyu could see that Elder Peng's cultivation was at the late Immortal Emperor Realm. He didn't have any divine power in his body, so it seemed so strenuous for him to repair this divine artifact.
If Elder Peng was a Celestial Venerable, with his superb skills, he wouldn't have to spend so much effort to repair a low-grade divine artifact.
Seeing how tired Elder Peng was, Xiao Lingyu found it hard to ask him to help repair the Invisible Divine Robe that had been severely damaged.
However, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and he couldn't let it go to waste.
After the feather fan was repaired, Qing Xuan put it away and made it recognize her as its owner. Only then did her expression look better. Her anger towards Xiao Lingyu also disappeared. After all, she didn't have any big conflicts or grudges with Xiao Lingyu. The drinking incident was just a small matter.
Elder Peng took a full three months to completely recover. Xiao Lingyu and Qing Xuan also waited on the fourth floor for three months. After all, Elder Peng was a guest and had helped a lot. Qing Xuan naturally had to do her best to watch and protect him while he was recuperating.
After Elder Peng woke up, Qing Xuan offered a storage bag and said, "Elder Peng worked so hard. Qing Xuan can't thank you enough. It's just a small gift. Take it as a token of my sincerity."
Xiao Lingyu estimated that there must be a lot of immortal crystals in the storage bag. He originally thought that a special existence like Elder Peng would definitely not care about immortal crystals and other worldly possessions. However, he didn't expect Elder Peng to put the storage bag away after smiling.
"It seems that this old guy didn't help for nothing."
Since that was the case, Xiao Lingyu felt a little more at ease.
"When I was free, I brewed a few jars of good wine. I heard that Elder Peng likes this kind of wine, so I'll give you a few jars. I hope that Elder Peng won't laugh at my poor cooking skills after you drink it."
As Qing Xuan spoke, she took out a few jars of the wine that she had drunk with Xiao Lingyu before.
"It's rare for Qing Xuan to have such good intentions. This old man can satisfy his appetite again."
Elder Peng didn't refuse. He grinned as he put away the wine jars into his storage magic treasure, and then he said, "This matter is over. I've been out traveling for quite some time, so it's time for me to return and take a look."
With that said, Elder Peng stood up to leave. Qing Xuan gave Xiao Lingyu a meaningful look and said, "Elder Peng is going back? Why don't you stay in Nanhua City for a few more days so that I can play host to you?"
When Xiao Lingyu saw Qing Xuan's meaningful glance, he knew that Qing Xuan's anger had subsided. He felt even more relieved and said, "Elder Peng, I also have a damaged magic treasure that I want to ask you to help me repair. Would you be willing to trouble yourself again?"
Elder Peng asked, "Is it also a divine tool?"
Xiao Lingyu nodded.
